In March 2019, there teachers training days scheduled on 1st and 4th of March when our kids are off school. These “días sin cole” are tough to plan for and not everyone can get away on holiday. Here we give you some options for things to do with your family in Madrid.

Ages: 3-9 years old
Where: Circulo de Baile, Plaza Conde Valle Suchil 3 (Metro San Bernardo)

What KIM says: Hello! Creative English was founded at the same time as Kids in Madrid and we’ve been following their expansion over the years with much joy. Their hallmark is quality. The limited places they offer at camps allow for reduced numbers per activity and children receive individual attention. There is a focus on fun and freedom. This weekend they will be looking at how to Protect the Earth.
